Upcoming Events in the World of NASCAR
| Yesterday's Auto Club 500 was uneventful, but in a good way. This week wasn't marked by rogue drivers hell bent on getting to the front of the pack by whatever means possible. Instead, the Auto Club 500 was one of the cleanest races in the history of NASCAR. Only 2 cars, Greg Biffle & Tony Stewart, did not finish the race. As it turns out, mechanical problems, not tempers lead to their shortcomings (both suffered engine failures). This coming week, the Nextel Cup and Craftsman Truck drivers get a breather as the Busch Series teams head to Mexico City for the Telcel-Motorola 200 presented by Banamex. Last year, the Telcel-Motorola 200 presented by Banamex was won by Martin Truex Jr. Expect another strong showing by Martin along with the few other Nextel Cup guys heading down to brush up on their road racing skills. Next Week's Schedule: Nextel Cup Off until March 12 @ Las Vegas Busch Series 03/05/06 2pm EST Telcel-Motorola 200 presented by Banamex -Fox Craftsman Truck Off until March 17 @ Atlanta | ||
